Thank you for your assistance. And I would appreciate your tolerance as I have some more questions:

1- Do I still have to weigh the data?

2- And given that the numerator and the denominator cancel each other out in the first stage of calculating the percent of women in a district using modern methods, how I can weigh my data?

3- Shall I use clustering in the second stage (regression) if I weighed my data in the first stage?

4- I do not think I would be able to bootsrap the first stage by myself. Also, I think this will consume a lot of time. Do you think this is a necessary step in my case? Will it affect the results?

Thank you for your guidance.

Kind regards,
Amira
